Museum for Broken Relationships

Balkan heartbreak a hit in Berlin

One woman donated her wedding dress to the exhibitionA travelling exhibition devoted to the theme of failed relationships is proving a hit in Berlin.

Members of the public are asked to give or donate an object, along with a short description of what it means to them, the time of the relationship, and where they are from.

"Even if the objects seem ordinary the stories are very individual and they make the exhibition come alive," Mr Dobrovic said.

What would you put there? Certainly not notes for the cloned one!!!

It sounds blue, an exhibit devoted to the theme of failed relationships, I bet it feels like old wounds and scar tissue. [Pause/Tone change] If well groomed it can be a good idea. And perhaps it will bring a certain sense of closure to the donors. If so, good for them.

When I first read this...I have to confess I thought it was a strange idea...but when we think about it...why not? Nowadays we have all types of exhibitions...and this one is for sure an innovation!

And it might be good for those who recently end a long term relationship... to share their feelings and maybe find someone with an identical storie.

Who knows if in a museum for broken relationships, you won't find your true better half?
